Skin Tone correction has always been a challenge. One of the issue is the colour display we have which is not calibrated or whatever reason you may have. This tutorial by Lynda shows how to adjust the CMYK numbers to make color corrections to skin... enjoy!

As a general starting point, yellow would be a little bit higher than magenta, cyan is between 1/5 to 1/3 of magenta and yellow. For darker skin, the values would be higher.
Use info panel (F8) and click on the skin area to be analysed using the eyedropper tool (I) and check the values of CMYK. To change the value, use a curve adjustment layer.
